DMM Mantis
Brand new from DMM. Looks good and is lighter than the Verso. I feel it is better suited to sub 10mm ropes.

The Pivot won the Outdoor Industry Award for Belaying off Anchors in 2015. Nothing else comes close, really impressed with this one.
Really useful as a redirect if using a waist belay at the top.
Great for reducing rope drag.
I have read good reviews.
A really good unit, seems to do it all.
A very versatile device, but takes a while to become competent/conversant with it. You will either love it or hate it, take a look at some reviews before you buy.
The perfect device for when the lead climber outweighs the belayer.
Could also be useful if you have an inexperienced belayer, or are just paranoid about being dropped!
Has had good reviews, designed primarily for sport climbing.
NEW IMPROVED MODEL
Can be connected to the belay loop without using a crab. Has an anti-panic function (that can be deactivated).
A small, light rigging plate.
Combines carabiner with rigging plate.
Really handy multi-directional pate. NB: Colour is BLACK.
Ideal for use with single ropes.
A great pulley to use in a hitch climbing set up.
If you like the ISC micro pulley you will love this - very compact.
The gold standard for ascenders, the new model is even better.
The gold standard for ascenders, the new model is even better.
Solid, multi-purpose ascender.
Possibly the best of this type on the market.
Not too big, ideal for crevasse, river or rock work. Well priced.
Works great with an Ascension and a GriGri.
A compact double pulley.
An essential for every climber. Nothing else comes close for this type of device. Now stocking new model, which has an increased rope range.
Probably a good choice if your belayer is just starting out
The classic Petzl figure 8.
Editor's Choice Super Topo - so small, so light, so many uses.
Works better than most prusik minding pulleys.
93% efficiency, openable progress-capture pulley.
At 53g it's a lot smaller and lighter than the Micro at 85g, but you can't lock open the cam.
Better than a GriGri for lead belaying. Very nice.
Good, cheap emergency pulley, really low weight (42g) makes it easy to carry.
Lightweight and compact.
Saves cross loading carabiners and makes for a clean anchor.
Designed for canyoning, but suitable for other uses. Will only work with a small biner such as the Petzl Sm'D or an Attache.
Use with single or double ropes.
Efficiency - 95% I think it's the best pulley I've ever used.
A favourite belay device for multi-pitch climbing.
The 18mm pulley sheave is a lot bigger than the DMM Revolver, it is also heavier. Available with a triple action gate, or a snap gate.
A really useful piece of kit, highly recommended.
Suitable for rope only. My choice for tyroleans if not a frequent activity. Lighter than the Speed.
Suitable for rope and cable. Fastest of the carriage pulleys specifically designed for low angle tyroleans. Stainless steel sheaves.
Much improved over the older model.
A very cheap emergency pulley - needs to be used with an oval screwgate.
Light and compact - my current belay device and I've tried them all!
Designed as a swift water rescue pulley, but popular as a general 50mm pulley.
Very strong (32kN multi directional), yet very light.
Having numbered holes makes this plate a lot safer and easy to use.
Really like this one - compact and smooth.
A good, versatile device.
Made from aramid (a heat resistant, very strong synthetic fibre) it has excellent gripping power, bites better, highly heat resistant and handles nicely - I would never go back to cord. Two lengths and a choice of colour.
These are some of the best belay glasses I have tried.
Ideal to wear over all glasses. Just flip up if not required. So much better than stacking or swapping between glasses.
Well priced, very popular.
New innovation, very useful.
